Wrong Responses to Evil Aug 29, 2025

A deranged tranny--and there is no other kind--shoots up Annunciation Church and School in Minneapolis and the pseudo, anti-bishop Blase Cupich rushes to vilify gun ownership. What a tool of all of the demonic powers that be, and as such, he is a perfect representation of the ape, intruder church. It should hearten the awake and the authentic Catholics that, while absolutely sinister, these boomer-fruitcake prelates are equally moronic and inept. Paper tigresses, as it were. A real bishop would be in sackcloth and ashes for ever advancing the inverted notion that somehow the Church has persecuted those celebrating gender dysphoria and sexual deviancy, and thus must repent.
Have you seen any such bishops?
Oak Parkers take one more step to affirm the schools-are-prisons claim by removing bathroom doors. Forget convincing kids of values that should direct their lives; instead, INCREASE THE SURVEILLANCE!

The Next Book Aug 21, 2025

Gary and Charlie deep dive into the subject matters for Gary's next book--due out sometime next year--about Catholicism and anarcho-capitalism. Turns out that it's so radical, no one else of note is ready nor willing to work in the field. Ah, but the field is fertile, my friends. Jacques Ellul and Leo Tolstoy play supporting roles.
Oak Parkers write letters to the editors of Wednesday journal. To the shock of no one, they illustrate just how captive they are to the "official narratives".

Tired of Being Right_ Aug 08, 2025

You would think--given the number and kind of scams with which we've been bombarded over the past several years--that debunking the lies and liars would be somewhat heavy lifting. Not so. Perhaps it is because the narratives are so weak? Maybe it's the combined ancap and Catholic lenses through which we view reality? Whatever the case, Epstein didn't kill himself, Covid was a depopulation measure, Russiagate was a total con, and October 7th was a false flag.
And that's just to name a few. We've already gotten started on establishment Civil War historians, Harper Lee, and Frank Lloyd Wright with more DarkNotes to come.
It is better to be right than wrong, all of the time, despite how much and how often we're labeled as scoundrels and radicals for it.
Oak Parkers reject Orwellian surveillance and look for alternative methods of totalitarianism.

All Over the Place 2 Jul 31, 2025

From the guys who brought you ALL OVER THE PLACE 1 comes the long awaited sequel.
Gary and Charlie debate whether Gary should attend his upcoming high school reunion, accounting for his passionate desire not to go.
Stats and analyses from places like the Financial Times show that, like never before, college is not worth it for men. Maybe for women, but they're going into zombie jobs and careers. It's a short sighted move--and exorbitantly expensive choice--for both sexes.
Tucker Carlson played host to renowned economist Richard Werner. He gets about 75 percent of the story right while the Austrians got it at 100 percent, plus extra credit given how history has borne itself out.

Inversion In the House Jul 21, 2025

INVERSION: FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE
Is it not oddly fitting that the darkest of forces--demonic, nephilim, human--work to obscure the good, the true, and the beautiful to such an extent that our consciousness of the transcendent is dulled, often beaten to the point of near submission? Ours might be a time, like never before, that requires reliance on divinely enlightened powers; namely, instinct and intuition. Infused and informed by God, they help us to know His Name and hear His Voice. Embrace subversion of this world, in short. The Holy Spirit demands nothing less.
River Forest follows in Oak Park's hypocritical footprints regarding everything from leaf blowers to the Orangeman. Good trouble my ass.

DarkNotes: Frank Lloyd Wright Jul 10, 2025

The "bloviator-in-chief" of architecture. Is it not long overdue--in the spirit of Miri AF's "If You Know Their Name, They're in the Game" mantra--to question the supposedly unassailable genius and impact of Frank Lloyd Wright? All the more, modern Oak Parkers have placed him in their invidious, humanistic pantheon, so that status eggs Gary and Charlie on all the more.
A great architect in his own right, return guest Sam Roche graces this video-enhanced episode with sublime wisdom and equanimous assessment of the work and man.
The Village of Oak Park is kind of, sort of sure that air conditioning work priced at over $1 million dollars was actually done. Overheated hospital rooms serve as evidence to the contrary. Who knows? More arguments for Oak Park officially announcing what it already is--a freak-show sanctuary.

Three Years into the Revolution Jul 04, 2025

Hard to believe but it has been three years since the release of A TWISTED HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, 1450-1945 and not only does it still ring true, the resonance is deafening.
Synchronicity. Just as Trump's GOP Big Beautiful Omnibus Bill passes through the ever-impish Congress, 2025 marks the first year in American history that purely interest payments and non-discretionary spending will exceed anticipated government revenues. That's right: Well before a discretionary dollar is allocated and often wasted, Washington is in the red.
How did it get there? It has been the operation of the post-war welfare/warfare, perpetual crisis state which has been spending money in hyperdrive in order to convince you that the murder/suicide government is all that is keeping your world together.
Even Orwell shrugs.
Oak Parkers foot the bill for another outside group to tell them how racist and intolerant they are--with the rather explicit, performative end of proving how anti-racist and tolerant they are. The LBGTQ+-*?TXQY crowd walks the gay parade.

Austrian Catholics are the Best Jun 27, 2025

Better bring choice stuff if one wants to challenge the greatest economists and thinkers of the 20th century, and despite his extended attempt to do so, Christopher Ferrera failed in knocking the Austrian School and its giants--Mises and Rothbard--from their rightly gained perch. Turns out, the economic system most defensive of natural law, property rights, proper consent, social cooperation and free markets weathers every quasi-socialist storm. God detests the false idol of the State.
The Oak Park nominal Catholic crew mourns the inevitable closing of St. Catherine/St. Lucy church. The police blotter features a guy on a moped with a serious, self-inflicted headache.

Ted Talks Iran Jun 20, 2025

A one-sided, avalanche of lies, false narratives and idiotic logical fallacies: Hope Tucker Carlson was prepared for exactly what he got when he interviewed Ted Cruz on the Senator's full-throated and fully convicted Zionism. The nature of Carlson's smirky responses and queries indicate that he was. Sure, he could have pushed even harder, and Tucker--being far from an isolationist and even further from an an-cap--should have not ceded so much ground, but Gary and Charlie laud him nonetheless.
Ted Cruz is a loyal soldier and patriot of the Likud Party of Israel; a Zionist maximalist who seems a bit lost in his native Canada and adopted United States. Lyndon Baines Johnson would be so proud.
Oak Parker take to the streets not to protest the closing of Catholic Churches--after all, for them, that's a cause of celebration--but rather to rail against monarchy. Really, it's this particular king with whom they are unnerved, not the previous 20 or so to whom they afforded the most abject obsequiousness.

Barron is... Fine Jun 09, 2025

He's just not the bishop we need right now, mainly because Bishop Barron lives in a comfortable church wherein he has made quite the career in vacillating between the heterodox and the orthodox, all the while refusing to recognize the obvious sicknesses that abound. He's an intelligent man, apt at quoting sources both secular and religious--well, so long as said sources do not speak of a demonic infiltration into Holy Mother Church. Suddenly, the words are lost. Dropped a lot of balls in this one; a bunch of obvious opportunities to--dare we say "proselytize"--Tucker Carlson and his audience. Who wants to join a community much less a church where the club's leadership is so deferential to every other team?!

In The Hole May 30, 2025

Owen Benjamin airs his masterpiece musical diatribe against the sport of golf; Gary and Charlie then run with the analogy given that successive Chicago City Halls as well as their lap dogs in the City Council have dug quite the financial hole for the Phoenix City. Turns out, eating the proverbial seed corn and hoping in the most irrational of ways that crops will grow nonetheless, is about as good an indicator of a sick culture as any. A second Chicago fire smolders but is bound to erupt.

Sound the Tocsins May 25, 2025

For whom do the alarm bells toll? They sound for us.
Pope Leo XIV appears to be confirming very rational fears that he is going the way of Francis church with his approval of a new heretic-bishop for--of all places--St. Gallen in Switzerland and his appointment of a lesbian-nun to a dicastery for religious institutes. All non-canonical. All 'innovations' when we need apostolic tradition.
Thomas Massie further embraces an Athanasian spirit in being the lone actual American left in Congress. He sounds the alarm bells over Trump's 'one, big, beautiful bill' that only adds more to the already monstrous federal deficit. Great going, GOP...
Oak Park bids farewell to the good Ravi Parrakat and hello to supposed and costly infrastructure improvements. Anyone who has driven down a road in the village will know that it is tough-to-impossible to discern the difference between normal and construction zones.

Pope Leo XIV May 09, 2025

Habemus Papam, but the real question is: Just what kind of a pope will he be? Early indications and Leo XIV's own words do not point in the right direction. Red flags abound from his previous statements, actions and inaction as bishop, and the men who elevated him to the papacy; namely Deep Church maidens Blaze Cupich, Robert McIlroy and Oscar Maradiaga. The Lord is telling us to rest not and to gird the loins.

What do communism and an Army helicopter pilot on the incompetent-to-deranged-to-kamikaze spectrum have to do with one another? A lot, as it turns out. Diversity, equity and inclusion has, after all, never been fully tried or implemented either, but its effects are sure being felt.
Back when we had an actual pope, Pius XII recognized well that unlike St. Joseph, communists and socialists want everything from you except your job. The humble carpenter from Nazareth worked out of true charity--to provide, to accommodate, to please. And his Son saw the good that he did and gave glory to Himself, the Father, and Holy Ghost.

Pope Francis is Dead Apr 23, 2025

What a relief. The Francis pontificate has come to an end, and despite Jorge Bergoglio, S.J.'s best efforts, the Church persists. There's a lot to be thankful for as Charlie and Gary reflect on the true Francis effect. God granted immense and powerful graces during this scourge, especially since Bergoglio served as a great demarcator; if you allied with him and saw him as a 'trailblazer' or 'apostle to the poor', we know now of your heresy. If you found yourself as part of the uncompromising resistance and concomitant allegiance to Christ--well, graces to you, brother!
The Freemasons and the World Economic Forum's favorite antipope is gone. Dante and other greats of the Church's past instruct us to mourn not.

Heretics and apostates gravitate to the State because it fits them and serves their true master's needs. It strikes at individual rights, human freedom and even at the division of labor.

New Detroit Apr 03, 2025

City finances and economic doldrums have real effects: restaurants shuttered, businesses seeking greener pastures, and commercial districts empty. Chicago appears to be on the accelerated path of Old Detroit from the 1970s and 1980s. Thus is always the unavoidable path when government insinuates itself into every nook and cranny of what would otherwise be a functioning free market. There is a magic wand that could be employed to solve all of its problems--but privatization is so far beyond the extremely limited imaginations of its leaders that the decline seems inevitable.

DarkNotes: Wolf of the Deep Mar 09, 2025

In our second, long-awaited DARK NOTES episode, we put historian Stephen Fox's WOLF OF THE DEEP through the HotH2OHistory wringer. Part biography of the intrepid Raphael Semmes, part account of his exploits as the captain of the feared C.S.S. Alabama, Fox recounts the adventures of the raider, his crew, and the ship that made Union vessels shudder during the Civil War. Where it gets spicy is when Fox, as a Yankee historian, cannot shake the inevitable condemnation of the South and even Semmes for their efforts in the war. After all, the worst, absolute worst thing an Ivy League historian can espouse is sympathy for the South and thus, racism. Because we all know with what unassailable virtue the North started and carried out the war...

Back to reality though: the Zelensky regime is much more similar to the wishfully totalitarian regimes of Revolutionary France and Third Reich Germany than any sovereign polity.

Tariff Deez Nuts Feb 06, 2025

With the Donald channeling William McKinley--another president who never saw a tariff he didn't like--the time has come to revisit sound economics and the free market take on import taxes. Spoiler alert: just like all other forms of state plunder, tariffs wind up benefitting the few at the expense of the many. Unless one wishes to find himself in a whole array of reductio ad absurdum positions, tariffs are just as bad as sanctions, regulations, rent controls, and minimum wage statutes. One must study the seen and the unseen, à la Henry Hazlitt.
USAID turns out to be the corrupt, shadow funding mechanism for a whole bunch of bad stuff the feds are disseminating at home and abroad. Is the use of 'abroad' offensive to the matrix?

Kennedy Hall Jan 24, 2025

Gary and Charlie welcome back the great Kennedy Hall to the show. Kennedy has been very busy since his last appearance, having completed a long overdue takedown of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal in his new book CHARISMANIA. On top of that, his opus on the synergy of all heresies--modernism--entitled WHAT HAPPENED TO CATHOLICISM? is due in April and is available for pre-order (links below). Turns out radical departures from the Traditional teaching of the Church pertaining to both pneumatology (study of the Holy Ghost) and ecclesiology (study of the Church) leaves the Body of Christ, figuratively, shaken. Heretical adherents are left literally so--and thus, outside of the Church. Asserting falsehoods and then putting on quite the acts tend toward such dispositions. (Matthew 24:24-25)

India is Untouchable Jan 09, 2025

With H1-B visas in the news in the United States, newly elected U.S. Representative Jayant Bhandari chimed in regarding Indian culture and society several months ago. His take-away from having been born and raised there: India has rejected Christian and Western mores and reverted to an amoral, apathetic culture. The individual cannot advance nor flourish in post-colonial India because values and virtues including honor, industry and justice are seldom present, much less operative.
Oak Park has hired a Richied look-a-like (or is it really him, leading quite the hypocritical, alternative life?!) as their new Commissar of Public Health. The resemblance really is uncanny. River Forest moves to advance even more municipal totalitarianism.

NO Libertarianism Anymore Jan 05, 2025

In a most predictable fashion, Jack Posobiec et al. launched into their traditional screed about how domestic "terrorist" attacks are all the fault of libertarians, what with the immense power grip they have on government and their ceaseless bleating about "civil liberties and rights". Never fear, your humble correspondents have some vanquishing retorts, as do Dave Smith, Clint Russell and now-Christian, Spike Cohen.
Blowback is a bitch (even if the Deep State is using it as a pretense for even more military-industrial complex campaigns against the dreaded "Muslim extremists").
Disclaimer for the Posobiecs, James Lindsays, and Lindsay Grahams of the world: OF COURSE, ISRAEL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS AS THE SOLE DEMOCRACY IN THE MIDDLE EAST!!!

Cast Into the Deep Dec 29, 2024

Perhaps the greatest challenge for the modern Catholic is to find the happy state wherein one trusts in God, not to the point of surrendering to inertia but more so that state of cooperating to the fullest extent with actual and sacramental graces in order to attain excellence in the here and now. Temporal and natural achievement ought to be pursued, attained and celebrated without a shrug of the shoulders but rather for the greater glory of God.
Acedia acts as a potent depressant to the soul. It could be said that it is the sin of admitting that everything and every act is ho-hum--an egalitarianism of behavior, if you will.
Holy Writ, St. Paul, the Fathers of the Church and St. Josemaria Escriva pushed excellence and a true exercise of human freedom so as to combat this subtle but progressively deadly vice.
River Forest--the Gomorrah to Oak Park's Sodom--deals with a rash (actually one incident) of gay pride flag theft. No worries though: the juvenile offenders will be placed in the tender care of over-funded and under-qualified Dominican University social workers.
After that, they are sure to never commit another crime... Right...

Replace "baby" or "honey" or "my love" with the United States and Israel, and you'll have a very quick but accurate summation of a diabolical and deadly love affair.

Unleash the Cops Dec 08, 2024

An Oak Park detective was gunned down last week, and the same people who created such a dangerous environment in which cops must work were, altogether predictably, the first ones to express their phony "condolences".
The supposedly aggrieved over the murder of Detective Reddins are the same ones creating the current state of anarcho-tyranny, i.e. a government imposed disorder and injustice. This is contrary to our beloved anarcho-capitalism which would naturally bring order and voluntary exchange. And, with it, peace. Let us never confuse the two.
The Oak Park Village Board, in the midst of their grieving, elected to set aside $1 million for the Percy Jullian Shrine in the most classically Oak Park Way: "It’s not yet clear exactly how the $1 million will be used."

Trump Does Cleveland Nov 15, 2024

Stark contrasts exist between Trump, who is about to take the American Imperial Throne for the second time and his only, real predecessor--the Chief Executive of what once was the American Republic, Grover Cleveland. Ironically, Trump wants to raise tariffs; Cleveland wanted to all but abolish them. Trump is a real estate man and, as such, wants interest rates pushed down--Fed or high water. Cleveland needed interest rates to subside as well but resorted to John Pierpont Morgan and private finance to save the system. Both presidents wished to restrain the Empire's adventurism. Both really, really liked gold. Let's just see how much Trump still does...

Ben Bollinger Oct 31, 2024

A very odd statue of basketball star Dwayne Wade was unveiled in Miami just as the Vatican promoted a Japanese, anime inspired mascot, Luce. Both representations have received the proper, popular derision they deserve because neither symbol resembles the actual beings for which they stand.
Ben Bollinger joins the show to elucidate the areas in which the Church faces imaging and outreach problems, all of which is disturbing since the Church has been granted the Light of Divine Truths in Revelation and Tradition, not to mention Augustine, Aquinas, Michelangelo and Mozart. Good material is hardly lacking, so to speak.
Thanks to Ben too, for sharing his trek to communion in the Catholic Church and how he has been graced to be confirmed in his decision.

Not Enough to Hate the State Oct 18, 2024

The great Ryan McMaken at the Mises Institute advances some key insights pertaining to the war the state has always led--by its nature--against private, organic, cooperative and voluntary institutions and associations. His article provides some ways to fight back, but that's only after we recognize just how inimical freedom is to government and vice versa. It ought to come as no surprise that the Church and the family have always found themselves in the state's crosshairs, both literal and figurative.
Marie Antoinette was a typical victim of the state gone crazier than normal--or was the French Revolution just the inevitable outcome of ultimate, religious deference to the state? Though the Dauphine-then-Queen was by no means an anarchist, two anarcho-capitalists here express their fondness for her courage and Catholic faith. She got caught up in a shit-storm stirred up by noble rivals and bloodthirsty rabble.
Oak Park (which a lot of queens call home) feigns concern about voting integrity and affordable housing.

What Must Be Done Sep 23, 2024

Anarcho-capitalism is a beautiful ideology and theory, but it is also hard to swallow for the uninitiated. Breaking out of the matrix and Overton window is intimidating. Hans-Hermann Hoppe offered both theory and practical advice as to how to proceed--27 years ago. His address turned transcription has aged so well that its wisdom shines all the more brilliantly. The antidote to the State is desperately needed.

And, they did it mostly because members of equally prominent and evil British families (Windsor, Churchill) needed Uncle Sam to help pillage and plunder Iran of its oil.

The Head and the Heart Jun 06, 2024

June is the month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, despite what corporations, government media, and elementary schools in Oak Park would have you believe. Christ thirsted and thirsts for more souls to accept and be saved in the font of his mercy and love--St. Margaret Mary Alacoque shows us the way.
Chase Oliver flies a different flag every month of the year and insists--in a very un-Lincolnesque fashion--that if only the government would get out of the way of trans-ing kids then their parental abusers would be free to transition them to their adult-hearts' content.
Chicago and its suburbs strive to out-rainbow flag one another.

Big L for Libertarians May 30, 2024

Determined to prove Trump right, the Libertarian Party espouses perpetual irrelevance and likely assisted suicide through the nomination of a leftist. And, in an effort to totally outdo themselves, the delegates tabbed a corrupt cop as his VP. Despite the heroic efforts of great people like Angela McCardle, Dave Smith, Michael Rectenwald and Michael Heise, the LP is like that freighter that ran into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore a couple of months ago--a disaster captained by hall monitors--present and remote--who were justly stuffed into lockers in grade school and now seek revenge on the cool-kids-turned-adults.
All this proves a valuable point: It's best to disassociate one's self from compromised institutions infiltrated with crazies. That is, unless, said institution happens to be the conduit of grace and salvific portal of salvation established by Jesus Christ Himself. That one is worth fighting for for eternity.

Georgia on My Mind May 25, 2024

"Rules based order" and "rule of law" are phrases and notions that, at this point, deserve all of the risible, dismissive derision we can muster. Defiant PM's the world over are getting shot and threatened in a move from a very old globalist playbook.
In the old U.S. of A., lawyers do what they do best--point out the absurdity of their work and the system in which they ply their "trade".

Transformative Leadership, Transformative Leadership May 17, 2024

Getting things right, way, way ahead of time is oh so sweet! In something of a victory lap, Gary and Charlie hit on the subjects that most thought to be conspiratorial takes just several months ago--now, they are proven to be almost irrefutably true. The guys have had help along the way: Gary talks about his recent appearance on THE DELINGPOD; it was an honor since the great James Delingpole is one of the leaders of the crack cadre of the awakened. Charlie waxes triumphant on the sun and sunscreen.
Oak Park wants "transformative leadership". I mean it really, really wants "transformative leadership" so bad that they say it twice. One more time and that totalitarian genie who appears in the form of Bernie Sanders is sure to pop out of his lamp and, voila!

Anti-Graduation League May 08, 2024

Charlie welcomes Gary back on the show to discuss just how close Richied feels to the great Lysander Spooner and the latter's take on licensure laws. Hint: Eye-to-eye.
It's that time of year--the annoyance of graduation season where we are all compelled to celebrate juveniles' release from prison while, wink-wink/nod-nod asserting that they must have learned something of value... How about an ANTI-GRADUATION SPEECH?!
Oak Park celebrates allowing a non-profit to save local restaurants--the same establishments the village attempted to wipe out during the Covid hysteria. Another "Catholic" sister is canonized because she inspired others though disconnected social justice warring and puerile, insipid insolence against the consistent doctrine of the Church. Oak Park heroine to be sure.

Mises Said Knock You Out Apr 19, 2024

Austrian economics--or better, interest in it--is sweeping the world of those not-yet-brain-dead from the Keynesian establishment. From New York comedians who should be running for president, to geeky former college professors who read Human Action for the pure fun of it, to UFC fighter Renato Moicano... may freedom and prosperity and the ideas which support both, rain and reign over all.
Oak Park actively refuses Ludwig von Mises's sagacious advice on everything, so illegal migrants are getting the VIP treatment while Dominican University runs a weird dog-and-pony-show advocating for one of the most pervasive and dangerous notions: "bipartisan dialogue".

Iran to the Rescue Apr 11, 2024

Just pause and reflect for a moment: Objectively speaking--are not our supposed foreign adversaries not the most self-restrained peoples on earth?! That is to say that the Palestinians, the Putin regime, and the mullahs in Iran--all of whom we are told by the nefarious "they" out there, in particular the Zionist Marxist core of "them" to hate unconditionally-- all acting contrary to the malevolent impulses projected upon them? Putin has no real aims on the rest of Eastern Europe, and the Iranian regime (radicalized by the CIA and Reagan Administration) takes the occasion of Israel leveling its embassy in Damascus to increase insistent calls for peace.
The Israeli Socialist state must go. The United States has married itself to a monster it created and sought abroad.

Without The King, We're Cooked Mar 28, 2024

Faithful Christians--and the most authentic of them, we Catholics--are rightly shaking sensibilities and uprooting cosmologies with a direct declaration of Truth: Christus Rex.
Indeed, without him, we are definitely toast as the uniparty's new emissary, the spineless Mike Johnson, runs the country into the ground with yet another catastrophe of a spending resolution. Another resolution for all these Republicans with no resolutions otherwise.

Dr. Francis Prescribes the Poison Mar 21, 2024

Just when you thought that Jorge Bergoglio could not discredit himself more, nor that he could further prove his status as a heretical anti-pope, he just went ahead and totally outdid himself! Calling refusal of the Covid jibby-jab a suicidal form of self-denial, Francis has now firmly cemented himself as the worst Bishop of Rome in Church history. Even the NEW YORK TIMES is admitting that the real suicide was following the order of the Birx-Fauci cult--but Frankie remains resolute.

Violence in Russia and Oak Park Mar 14, 2024

This week's 'Meanwhile in Oak Park' was too good to delay to the end of the show as Village President Vicki Scaman suffers from a bout of ever-present narcissistic hypersensitivity. It's going around, you know...
Meanwhile in Russia, Alexander Dugin pens a letter and posts it on Twitter. This is no ordinary missive, however. He calls for the totalitarian militarization of the country as, he contends, Russia is engaged with the decrepit, boulevardier West and their neo-Nazi allies in Ukraine.

The Problems with Unions Mar 08, 2024

In what might be an unprecedented and likely never duplicated event, a guy in Austin, in front of the city council, lauds the municipality's support of the labor movement, and then is told he and his fellow Google employees just got laid off. His time expires, then--in more ways then one--with the government promising to "take up the issue" in the future.
So, why was the union of privileged, laptop coders (?) in greater Austin unable to save this due-paying members job? The jobs of his fellow comrades? He was addressing the reason and didn't even realize it. Mises explains from HUMAN ACTION.

Biggest take from the Tucker/Putin interview: Putin is a modern-day Realpolitik practitioner in the mold of Otto von Bismarck; granted, Putin is more defensive than the Iron Chancellor. Putin certainly has no one else on the world stage with whom to play 4-D geopolitical chess.
